House Hansard - 85

44th Parl. 1st Sess.

Mr. Speaker, as my colleague said, jury service is mandatory, but people are not always ready to hear all the horrific details in the testimony. I find it interesting that former jurors could also benefit from assistance and support in recognition of all that they saw and experienced. That was another proposal. We are all well aware of the long-term negative effects that PTSD can have on jurors. That is why it is important that my colleague's bill be retroactive to help those who have already gone through this kind of experience.
